e|n Partner Since 2002 The Indianapolis Zoo has been delighting guests of all ages for nearly 50 years.

Event Network has been the proud retail partner since 2002 and recently executed a
long term contract extensionwiththeZoo.Aspartextension,EventNetworkdesigned
and built a new 4,400 sq. ft. main store. Keeping with the Zoo’s conservation

initiatives, the design incorporated recycled and salvaged elements from the

local area. Recycled barn and fence wood was used for wall boards and fixtures.
Naturally fallen tree trunks foraged from local Indiana forest floors make up wall
supports and used as decorative features around the store. “Wow” elements, such
as the giant Orangutan statue and Elephant pillars accentuate the natural feel of the
store. The store is inviting to guests and there are surprises around every corner,
encouraging guests to explore and spend more time shopping in the store!

We look forward to continuing to
grow and deepen our partnership
in the years ahead. Your annual
meeting theme of service in your
work as a for purpose organization
resonate so very much with us
and we appreciate and value our
relationship with Event Network.

Chief Executive Officer

e|n Partner Since 2004 As America’s oldest zoo, the Philadelphia Zoo remains an innovator and leader in its

animal exhibits, conservation and its creative marketing campaigns to drive annual
attendance. Event Network and the Zoo work in an extremely collaborative fashion

on all aspects of the operation in an effort to maximize per capita spending and
integration of the guest experience. In 2010-2011, Event Network completed a major
remodel of the Zoo’s main store. While the footprint of the building could not change
(it is designated historic), passageways in and out of the store were dramatically
improved and the interior of the store completely redone to make it more shopper-

friendly, flexible and dynamic. The exterior received a nice facelift to draw more

traffic into the store. Event Network also operates several ancillary locations and
generates per capita sales at the highest end of the zoo spectrum nationally. It is a

true partnership with both parties committed to mutual long-term success.

Thank you for being such a wonderful partner to us at the Zoo.
We truly appreciate all of you at Event Network and
your team here is simply amazing!

— Jennifer Flowers
Director Membership & Guest Services

We enjoy a tremendous partnership with the

Phoenix Zoo. The Zoo is heavily supported by
its local community and has an outstanding

holiday experience that drives huge traffic.

Event Network has worked closely with the
Zoo to upgrade every aspect of the retail
experience, from product supporting the

Zoo’s conservation efforts and sustainable

initiatives to the store environments that

complement the Zoo grounds and celebrate
the rich history and heritage of the Phoenix

area. With the support of many local and loyal

customers, we have produced remarkable

results. We look forward to growing the
business further in coming years.

e|n Partner Since 2006

What an incredible year this has been!

Michelle and the team are just fantastic.

We are thrilled to see such success together

on a number of projects, especially given

a few very nutty spring break attendance

days! All has been smooth and really

enjoyable for our guests — the numbers

sure show it! — Jessica Patterson
Associate Director of Guest Services,
Woodland Park Zoo

e|n Partner Since 2014 Located in Seattle, the Woodland Park Zoo is famed for pioneering naturalistic

exhibits and setting international standards for zoos in animal care, conservation
and education programs. Through engaging exhibits and programming, the Zoo
helps raise awareness and educate guests on the importance of conservation

and ways individuals and communities can take action to preserve our natural

habitat. Event Network was selected as the Zoo’s retail partner after a national RFP
process in 2014 for our ability to extend and support the Zoo’s mission through

creative and compelling merchandise assortments and store environments.

Results so far have been spectacular, and we look forward to being in service to
the Woodland Park Zoo and its guests for years to come!

Titanic is the unsinkable
exhibit. It really has been an
amazing run… a testament
to such a moving and tragic
historical event. We have
certainly enjoyed the ride!

— Larry Gilbert
President and Co-Founder
Event Network

Educational, emotional and appropriate for all ages, Titanic: The Artifact

Exhibition, takes visitors on a journey through the life of Titanic. Along

the way guests will learn countless stories of heroism and humanity that

pay homage to the indomitable force of the human spirit in the face

of tragedy. Event Network has been honored to serve as the Titanic’s
Exhibition’s retail partner for the better part of 14 years (1998-2012) and
we have operated at least a few dozen Titanic stores over that time period.

Through Titanic, we have helped to define what museum exhibition retail

is capable of achieving.



The Hunger Games: The Exhibition celebrates the blockbuster The Hunger Games franchise
and Katniss Everdeen’s epic journey like never before. Lionsgate, in association with
Imagine Exhibitions, has harnessed and brought to life the energy, pageantry and history
of the world of Panem utilizing interactive media elements and props, costumes and sets
from the films. These components provide a behind the scenes look into the technological
wizardry and artistic elements used to bring Panem to life. Event Network designed,
built, merchandised and operates the store that has been labeled a “can’t miss” part of
the exhibition. A wide range of custom products to limited edition high end Mockingjay
jewelry, was developed exclusively for The Hunger Games Exhibition Store.



A true evergreen brand, Star Wars continues to captivate audiences of all ages.

Rebel, Jedi, Princess, Queen: Star Wars™ and the Power of Costume

developed by the Smithsonian Institution Traveling Exhibition Service in

partnership with the Lucas Museum of Narrative Art and Lucasfilm Ltd,

examines the complex process of costume making for the iconic film series.

Event Network designed, built and merchandised the store to compliment the

exhibit embracing the same principles — Immerse, Imagine, Create —
that guide visitors through exhibit and embody the challenges and triumphs

of creating the iconic wardrobes for the Star Wars™ universe.

With the successful launch
of Potter, Event Network has
exceeded our expectations on
every level. We couldn’t be more
pleased with their performance
and we look forward to many
years of partnership.

Exhibitgroup | Giltspur

Harry Potter is one of the most dynamic museum exhibitions ever developed.
Exhibitgroup/Giltspur, in partnership with Warner Bros, has brought to life a world
of wizardry with unprecedented literary appeal. The exhibit has toured very
successfully in North America from 2009-2011 before embarking on a world tour.
Event Network designed, built, merchandised and operated the Harry Potter store
at each host museum in North America. Because it is so good, the store is literally
integrated into the Exhibition. Working closely with Warner Bros and its Harry
Potter licensees, Event Network also created a singular collection of Harry Potter
merchandise that has yielded per capita sales of nearly $10.



Bloodthirsty plunderers. Pillaging warriors. Seafaring traders. What do we really
know about Vikings? VIKINGS: The Exhibition explores the myths and stereotypes

of this ancient culture and offers a fresh and contemporary look into the Viking

Age. VIKINGS is an extraordinary window into the lifestyle, religion, and daily lives

of these legendary explorers, artisans, and crafts-people. Exhibiting objects

rarely displayed outside of Scandinavia, this compelling exhibition challenges the

perceptions of the Viking Age through hundreds of objects, as well as interactive

and immersive experiences. Exclusive to the Royal Ontario Museum, a portion
of the exhibition was dedicated to the Viking footprint in Canada, and dove into
the archaeology and history of the Norse on our East Coast.



Star Wars: Where Science Meets Imagination is a thrilling exhibit that
explores the science and technology depicted in the Star Wars films. The

blockbuster exhibit, developed by the Museum of Science in conjunction with

Lucas Films, is the first exhibition to display costumes and props from all six

Star Wars films with real world technologies. Event Network designed, built,

merchandised and operates the Star Wars Exhibition shop, offering a diverse

assortment of unique product that compliments the exhibit and is sure to

please all Star Wars and Technology enthusiasts.



The art of marking skin with ink spans cultures, continents, and has evolved
over time. We find ourselves with a mysterious fascination with both ancient

and modern tattoo practices. Are they considered a sacred ritual or an act

of rebellion? A sign of belonging or expression of individuality? Tattoos an
Exhibition explores the history, technique, and motivation behind the practice,

as well as celebrating it as an art form. Premiering at the musée du quai Branly in

Paris, where the exhibition received rave reviews, it has since traveled to the

Royal Ontario Museum in 2016 and the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles

County in 2017-2018.

I have worked with Event Network for a number of years.
They are a company of great integrity and focus on their
craft of attraction and exhibition retail.

Evergreen Exhibitions

Dead Sea Scrolls: Life and Faith in Ancient Times is a masterful exhibition that

features the most comprehensive collection of ancient artifacts from Israel ever
organized, including what is widely considered one of the world’s greatest archeological

discoveries, the 2,000-year-old Dead Sea Scrolls. Dating from the Biblical to

Byzantine period, objects on display, in addition to the Scrolls, include remains of
religious artifacts, weapons of war, stone carvings, textiles, mosaics and everyday
household items that give guests a glimpse into the past. Event Network designed,

built, merchandised and operates the retail shop that offers a comprehensive
collection of books, replicas of artifacts, and items from the Dead Sea and Israel that
compliment this renowned exhibit.

BALTIMORE, MARYLAND

The newly remodeled National Aquarium Store redefines green
retail. Promoting conservation and sustainability guided the design
and construction process. From opening up the space to utilize more
natural light (supplanted with LED lighting), sourcing materials such
as low VOC paint and carpet made from discarded fishing nets, and
eliminating the use of plastic in fixtures and smallwares, the new store
embraces the Aquarium’s conservation messaging.

WILLIS TOWER | SKYDECK

CHICAGO, ILLINOIS

The Skydeck retail operation at Willis Tower is,
like so many Event Network locations, truly unique.
The Skydeck itself is like no other place in the
world, so in 2011 we built a forced-exit Marketplace
& Café to match its “wow” effect. We designed
a 5,000+ square foot “theater” of merchandise
and food that has guests lingering to shop and eat.
With the trends we are seeing, annual sales volume
potential is seemingly unlimited.

PHOENIX ZOO

The Phoenix Zoo and Event Network teamed up to

In the Fall of 2013, the Dino Store at the American Museum
of Natural History was completely overhauled to create a
